James Carroll only meant to do one deal to get to film school. But it went wrong. Now he owes GBP30,000 to drug-dealer Roger Oates. Just a year away from retiring to Honolulu, Roger knows this is no time to let things slip. If James can't pay, his parents must. But Francis Carroll has put everything he has into a project that will finally bring him the success he craves. He simply cannot afford to help his son. And it's no good asking his ambitious new wife Rachel. She wants a baby -- while his dangerously sexy first wife wants him back. Everyone wants to keep a grip: on their money; on their jobs; on their dreams. But something's got to give. Written with terrific verve and a sharp eye for the details of human behaviour, GRIP is a roller-coaster ride of suspense and surprises.

'There are many money/law/drug-linked thrillers but this page-turner has the added ingredient of a family drama, making it appealing to both genders. It's an interesting debut, much enjoyed by my reader.' -- Bookseller 20050923 'A financial/drug-related thriller with real characters and lots of heart' -- Bookseller 20060106  Be the first to write a customer review
